center cap paint - LX450 wheels
 
I just got my set of LX450 rims. :D

The center caps are in rough shape and I need to paint them. Does anyone have a recommendation on the right shade of paint? I'm keeping the LX450 rims in their stock paint since these are in good shape. I just need the center caps to look decent. I'll likely spray over the Lexus symbol. I'm an idiot when it comes to paint, so small words generally work best.

Thanks!

im not sure what shade...because i dont know the color of your vehicle...but black usually looks best on anything...Dupli-Color wheel paint works very good...also their Caliper paint works good...but its alllll in the prep work...make sure to spend A LONG ASS TIME!! prepping the wheels like everybody tells you to...or it will come out like crap...and chip and stuff...(like mine):mad2: :bang: :bang: :bang:...if your going for looks...then go for gloss black..if not..then go with semi-gloss black...hope this helps some...post some before and after pics also!:great:
